If you are considering a facelift or skin tightening treatment and can get one without surgery, why wouldn’t you? Our Vancouver, BC clinic, Anti-Aging Medical & Laser, offers a number of non-surgical facelift treatments that are non-invasive, require little or no downtime and cost much less than surgical alternatives.

If your forehead skin has become loose and sags, or, if you suffer from brow droop – a narrowing of the space between the brow and eyelid - a non-surgical brow lift may be right for you. A brow lift can be achieved with Botox ®, Restylane ®, Juvederm ® and other facial fillers. More about brow lifts.

Queen Nefertiti was renowned for her beauty, well-defined jawline and elegant neck contours. If you suffer from a sagging jowl or prominent neck bands, the Nefertiti Lift – a non-surgical facelift – can bring you closer to this ideal of beauty that has stood the test of time. More about Nefertiti Lift.

Soft Lift ™ is a non-surgical facelift that combines the benefits of Botox and Juvederm to lift, refresh and soften lower, mid and upper-face. This 45-minute treatment lifts the brow, softens wrinkles around the eyes, lifts the cheek area and chin, subtly increases lip volume, and decreases marionette lines. A quick lunch-hour treatment at our Vancouver, Canada clinic can turn back the clock 5 years. More about Soft Lift.

Selphyl ®, sometimes referred to as the “vampire facelift”, is a revolutionary non-invasive face lift that uses a small amount of your own blood to create an injectable filler. Selphyl stimulates new skin cell growth and collagen production, smoothing your skin and adding volume for a lift that makes you appear younger. Because Selphyl is made with your own blood, there is little chance of allergic reaction. Selphyl is an appropriate alternative treatment in areas of the face that are difficult to treat with other facial fillers. More about Selphyl.

If your skin is slack and has uneven texture, fine lines and wrinkles, or brown spots, you may want to consider ThermaFrax - a combination treatment that offers the benefits of what many consider the best non-surgical skin tightening and resurfacing treatments available: Thermage CPT, and Fraxel ® laser.
Thermage uses radiofreqency so the treatment is sometimes referred to as “rf skin tightening”. Thermage tightens loose skin from the inside, making loose collagen fibers contract, while also stimulating collagen growth. Fraxel is primarily used to repair pigment conditions like sun spots, age spots and melasma, but it’s also an effective treatment for acne scarring, wrinkles and surgical scars.
Because ThermaFrax is two treatments in one, treatments take a few hours. While the treatment doesn’t require downtime (as do skin tightening surgeries), your skin will appear pink and peel in the week after the treatment. Results begin to appear in one or two weeks with continued improvement until the final results are achieved three to six months post-treatment.

If you desire tighter, smoother skin, softening of wrinkles and lines, and improvement to facial and body contours, our Vancouver, Canada clinic offers Thermage skin tightening with Comfort Pulse Technology. Thermage CPT tightens skin by targeting, repairing and renewing the growth of collagen in the dermis – the inner skin layer. Thermage is effective for loose facial skin (around the eyes, brow and jowls) and neck, but is also used to tighten and contour other areas of the body like the stomach.
Thermage treatments take about 1 to 1 ½ hours. Immediate post-treatment puffiness or swelling usually resolves within a day. Most clients resume their normal routine immediately. Results begin within two weeks until the final results are achieved around six months after the treatment.
